Ingredients
Onion Rings
- 2 Pieces Onions
Wet Coating
- 1 Piece Egg
Dry Coating
- 1/2 Cup Breadcrumbs
- 3 Tablespoons Almond Flour
- 1/2 Tablespoon Granulated Garlic
- 1/4 Tablespoon Onion Powder
- 1/4 Tablespoon Smoked Paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
For Air Fryer
- 1/2 Tablespoon Olive Oil (EVO Spray)
Instructions
- Equip All Needed Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients required for the recipe and prepare your work area.
- Slice Onions: Slice the onions into thick, uniform rings for even cooking. Preheat your air fryer to ensure it’s hot and ready for use once the coating is prepared.
- Prepare Coatings: In one bowl, combine almond flour, breadcrumbs, granulated garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk the egg to create the wet coating.
- Coat Onion Rings: Dip each onion ring first into the beaten egg, ensuring full coverage, then dredge in the dry coating mixture. Press gently so the coating adheres well. Repeat for all rings.
- Air Fry Prep: Lightly grease the air fryer basket with extra virgin olive oil spray to prevent sticking. Arrange the coated onion rings in a single layer without overcrowding.
- Air Fry First Side: Air fry the onion rings at 400°F (200°C) for 8 minutes to start crisping and browning.
- Flip and Continue Cooking: Carefully flip each onion ring with tongs to ensure even crispness. Air fry for an additional 5 minutes at 400°F (200°C) until golden and crispy.
- Serve: Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Ensure onion rings are sliced evenly for consistent cooking.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow proper air circulation.
- Use olive oil spray to help achieve a golden crisp without excess oil.
- For spicier rings, add cayenne pepper to the dry mixture.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
